At the Farm

Purple Haze Lavender is a 7 acre farm located in Sequim-Dungeness Valley of the northern Olympic Peninsula. We are one of more than 25 growers in the valley who are cultivating this wonderful and versatile herb. Our farm features a charming, eclectic gift shop and summer ice cream and beverage stand, along with ample outdoor seating and picnic areas where you can stop and smell the lavender. U-pick lavender is usually available in late June or early July and runs through early August. Our beverage & ice cream stand (open mid-June through Labor Day) features several flavors of lavender ice cream as well as some tasty lavender lemonade!

The Perfect Setting for a Lavender Farm

Lavender thrives here in Sequim because it enjoys the indigenous microclimate: low rainfall, mild winters, and a broad valley with open exposure. Jose and his crew have created a truly bucolic landscape comprised of multi-colored rows of lavender and helichrysum, softly framed by mature weeping willows and many other edible, interesting and otherwise delightful ornamental trees, shrubs, herbs, plants and flowers.

Though Purple Haze is no longer “certified” organic, we want our customers and partners to know we purchased this farm, in-part, because it was certified organic and had been for many consecutive years. The principles and practices of organic farming, production and processing could not be more important to us, and our dedicated staff has and will continue to apply organic standards, procedures and protocol to every aspect of our operation. You have our Purple Haze Pledge on that, feel free to ask us about it!

    • Hello, The lavender is at its peak in July. Blooming season starts at the end of May into June. We look forward to seeing you on the farm!

  • Will be passing through on Thursday April 11th for my wife’s B-day and would love to stop by the store and check out the facilities.

    • Hi Patrick, if we are not in the store when you arrive, you can call or text the number on the door and someone will be right with you. We are often out and about on the farm this time of year. Thanks and we look forward to seeing you in April!

  • Hi…we will be in the area on Sunday June 26th 2024. Will the U pick lavender and ice cream stall available that weekend yet? If not, can we still stop by the farm to see the lavender? Thank you!

  • I was wondering if you have the lavender lemon sorbet available in early May this year (2024) I’m heading your way for a late birthday trip and I have been craving that sorbet for 10 LONG years since we moved out of area.
    Thanks in advance for your reply.

    • Hello NaPua, let us know what day you are coming and we’ll do our best to have some ice cream available for you. It may not be the lemon sherbet, but our lavender lemon chiffon is pretty tasty as well! 🙂

  • Hello! I will be in the area on May 17/18. Is there any chance the lavender will be in bloom? I am a professional photographer and would love some shots of the fields at sunrise or sunset.
    Thank you.

  • Hello! I was so excited to see your farm on our way from Forks to Bainbridge Island. I have always wanted to see AND smell a lavender farm. My husband, 2 daughters and I will be driving through on June 11th. I’m very hopeful for blooming plants and lavender ice cream! Are there certain open hours that we should plan around? Thank you and see you then!

    • Hi Jami,
      The 11th of June is a Tuesday and unfortunately we are typically closed on Mondays and Tuesdays. That said, there are several other farms in the area that should be open on June 11th. In the summer months we are typically open Wednesday-Sunday 10 A.M. to 5 P.M. We hope you can stop by and see us some other time!

    • Hi Gretta, we typically do not offer tours or informational sessions. There are a couple of other farms in the area that do scheduled distillations during harvest season. We hope you choose to visit Purple Haze anyway, thanks for your interest in our farm!

  • We will be staying at your farm vacation house from Aug 4 to 8. Based on the weather condition, is there any lavender left and still blossoming by that time?

  • Can you please update your “u pick “ if it is not ready? It states mid-June plain as day on your website, yet it is not available. I drove close to two hours with an east coast visitor to visit and was told it was not ready. Save others the disappointment.

    • KM, thank you for bring this to our attention. We are so sorry you were not able to pick lavender. Our lavender is late this year and we are opening up a few rows this weekend. I sincerely hope you were able to find fresh lavender at one of the other farms.

    • Hello Valli,
      The Lavender is in full bloom! FYI, we are having an event this weekend. There will be an entrance fee of $10 per person, per day. Kids 14 and under are free.

  • I would love to visit but did I miss it, are there any blooms left? I wasn’t able to make it out in July. I have a sweet gentle lab that travels with me so I would have her with me when I came to visit. Hope that’s not a problem.

    Thank you,

    • Hi Megan,
      Dogs are welcome at Purple Haze, please keep your pup leashed at all times and pick up after them. Thanks!
